Prayers for Children

I am having a hard time putting words into prayer tonight. I had a perfectly lovely day for the most part, but this evening was full of frustration. I have been stood up, let down, passed over and basically run down. I am trying to keep an open mind about things but it is hard. I am trying to stay positive but it is hard.

So what do I do? I've heard many times to have a relationship with God. Some have suggested just talking with Him as I would any other friend. Tonight that's what I will do.

Lord,

Help me. You have been with me and even now that I am tired and frustrated I know You are here. I am going to give You my worry and concern. Knowing Your hands are big enough to carry anything give me comfort. My prayers were for children. Today I was thinking of when each of my kids have been in the hospital. You were most definitely shining down upon us both times. It was a scary time, but we came through okay. Today I was also thinking of all the other kids that end up in the hospital and are not so lucky. Lord, be with them. Give the little ones comfort that someone is with them through it all. To the parents give them strength. They are scared too, but must be brave for the little ones. Bless the doctors with skill and knowledge to treat their tiny patients. You have given each person a special assignment and I pray they will thrive to glorify You. Keep them healthy. Be with them. Calm fears and carry the worry and concern in Your hands.

In Jesus Christ, Amen.
